@dpzollinger.bsky.social and I are thrilled "Cleavage Politics in Western Democracies" is out as an SI at @wepsocial.bsky.social!
Its papers explore the foundations of the cleavage pitting new left against radical right parties, and how it compares to the classic cleavages of Lipset & Rokkan:

@annakurella.bsky.social & @milenarapp.bsky.social show that public opinion on new cultural policy issues is not strongly aligned with preferences on traditional economic & moral policies.

Very happy to see my first solo-authored paper published! I show that pro-European voters are increasingly considering European issues in their voting decisions. However, they still do so to a much lesser extent than Eurosceptic voters. Open access available: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Had a great time at #PSA2024 in Glasgow this week presenting an early version of a paper on survey cooperativeness in changing political environments. I also presented joint work with @milenarapp.bsky.social on how perceived voter-party environmental policy congruence affects voter attachment.
